The Silk Road is a famous trade route stretching from China to Europe through the routes across both land and sea. The land route of this famous trade road connects many Asian countries to each other, and stretches to Europe. When the musical cultures of the Asian countries that take place on the Silk Road were investigated, it was found out that the countries have many similar or unique traditional musical instruments. The purpose of this study is to find out the traditional instruments that have similarities with flute in the Asian countries taking place along the Silk Road, and to determine their similarities with the flute. The scanning model was used to carry out the literature review related to the traditional instruments that have similarities to flute, and to show them systematically. In the study, the instruments in the Asian countries taking place along the Silk Road which have similarities with flute were identified, introduced, and these instruments were described through a table that shows these instruments in terms of their features, the countries that they belong to, and their similarities to the flute. The findings of the study indicated that the traditional flutes that are used in Asian countries show similarities with the modern flute in terms of the structure, and the methods of holding and blowing. Finally, recommendations based on the findings and conclusions were presented.
